Chapter 257 Probability

Half an hour later, Kim left Silas' room to go prepared dinner for him. She would had done it before he woke up but she felt that it would be better for him to eat something freshly cooked and not her having to warm it when he wakes up.

After Kim left, Chris looked at the door for a few seconds and when he was sure that Kim had really left, he turned to look at Silas.

"How are you, son?" He asked as he took his seat.

"I'm fine, dad. I just need to rest a little more and I will back up on my feet." Silas smiled.

"I'm glad you're okay, son. I was really worried. Running such long distance to save us must have really taken a toll on you.

I'm sorry that I wasn't able to do anything to help and that's why I want to ask you if there's any way I can become strong to protect the family. It's okay if it's not as strong as you but enough strength to protect Kim, Alex and become someone they can rely on in times of danger," Chris said, with determination burning in his eyes.

Silas sighed when he heard this. This was exactly what he was thinking of before they walked. He wanted to discuss it with them after he had recovered fully, but it seems like he has to discuss it with his father now.

"Dad, I understand what you meant but first, whatever happened wasn't any of your fault. If someone is to take the blame, then it should be me. I knew that Daniel will tatget everyone but I didn't do anything about it.

If I had taken him down immediately after he landed in San Francisco, everything could had been avoided. So dad, don't beat yourself up over what isn't your fault," Silas said, looking at his father intently.

He saw his father sigh and smile. Silas also smiled and nodded when he saw this.

Silas didn't want his father taking on the blame for something that wasn't his fault, especially when the blame is supposed to be his.

"Dad, about increasing your strength, there's a way. Actually, two ways," Silas said and his expression became serious.

"With the first method, there's a possibility of you awakening a superpower but it isn't guaranteed. The probability of that happening is also low. But it comes with a lot of pain. Though it's a one time thing, the pain that comes with it is not to be taken lightly.

The second method is long but painless. And there's also no chance of awakening any superpower," Silas said as he continued to look at his father, intently and with a serious expression on his face. Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Yes, still Silas gave his father these two options but he never wanted him to choose the first and this reason why he was happy when his father took the second option.

"Okay, Dad, we will begin when we get to Venezuela. I know you have a lot of questions, I will answer them when we get there," Silas said and Chris nodded.

The father and son duo confined to talk about other things until a few minutes later, when Kim walked into the room with a tray filled with plates in her hands.

She walked to his bed and sat down beside him. Silas watched her curiously as he saw her pick up the spoon and was about to start feeding him.

His face reddened slightly when he saw this as his thoughts ran wild. He quickly collected the spoon from her.

"You have to worry, Kim. I can do this." He smiled as he collected the spoon.

"Ate you sure? You know you're still injured. I don't mind feeding you, you know?" She smiled as she was about to grab the spoon, but Silas immediately placed it far from her.

"My body is fine now. Using the spoon won't be a problem." Silas smiled with his face reddening even more.

Kim saw his reddened face and chuckled lightly.

"My, my. Are you embarrassed, maybe?" She asked as she smiled at him.

She was worried about his injuries and how difficult it is for him, and this is the reason she wanted to feed him.

Silas saw this and chose not to respond as he started eating his food silently.

Silas' reaction caused Kim to laugh. She found teasing him go be adorable as it brings out the vulnerable part of him that he always hides.

Chris saw the exchange between the two of them and smiled.

"Come on, dear. Let's give him some space to eat and rest. You know he just woke up," He said as he held Kim's hand, and left Silas' room.

After they left, Silas continued to eat his food with a smile on his face. Kim's teasing made him to momentarily forget about every other things and he was happy about it.
